Eat Your Yolks

More and more often nowadays, people strain from eating egg yolks because of the high cholesterol. Shameless to say, I was once one of those people. However recently, I discovered that egg yolks are not nearly as bad as people have perceived it to be.

Although egg yolks don't contain much protein, it contains most of the egg’s nutrients such as Vitamins from A to D, and it contains choline which is key to a neurotransmitter that helps increase strength, just the strength part alone was enough to get me eating egg yolks. Nonetheless, the yolk contains all the fats, the healthy saturated kind along with old misunderstood cholesterol. The saturated fats in the yolks helps make you feel more satiated and the cholesterol is useful for guys because it aides in the production of the male hormone testosterone and you all know why that’s important. Also the cholesterol from egg yolks aren’t associated with the blood cholesterol levels, rather it is associated with an increase in lean muscle.

So think twice before giving your yolks to someone else, you could be giving them your lean muscle growth.
